He used the run off to gain an unfair advantage JUST as he did at Spa in 08. So i guess its ok for Kimi to do that, infact he would not have won the race if he did not gain so many positions unfairly there! :thumbdown:


I think I'll take DC's word over yours:


i dont think i care what you do or what DC said. He gained an advantage there by carrying more speed up Eau Rouge its simple physics.

Why are you people so focused on what Kimi did that day and completely forget that other drivers did the exact same thing too? Why only bitching about Kimi and Ferrari?
I mean, I know certain people are always going to bitch but lets have some consistency shall we.


because he passed a few cars and ended up winning maybe.....

DC was asked on the BBC forum after the Singapore GP if Webber should have been penalised for driving off the track when fighting with Alonso.
DC said the white line defines the track if you drive over the line you should be penalised.He never said that about Rakkonen in the Belgium GP.In other words don't listen to DC he is as inconsistent as the race strewards.


If there's an advantage gained, I agree they should be penalised.

EJ made a more interesting point, forget the white lines, let drivers use all of the race track. It can only encourage more overtaking and it can't be unfair if drivers know it's permitted.

The alternative would be to barrier everything off track, just like in Monaco. It should definitely do one of the two - as it stands there's no overtaking and too many second chances for drivers who go off.


Yeah juts put big walls there.
It annoys me, if you are gonna make a street circuit, make it a decent one, with no run off.

So you only complain about rule infrictions if the driver in question happens to do well and you dislike the driver and/or team? In other words rules are completely subjective to you. Gotcha.

And this whole thread just points out why there can be no blurring of the rules, no subjective decisions, the rules as written should be followed to the letter.

Yes sometimes people will be punished for slight mistakes, even given penalties when all the have done is compromise there own race, unfortunately that's just too bad.

Drive an error free race and win that way.
